ROCKIES Course Preview

A course strategy – and overall race strategy – is a must for optimal performance on race day. Whether this is your first REVEL Rockies race and your goal is simply to finish, or you are a veteran aiming for a PR or BQ, you should have a well-planned strategy for how you intend to manage the course!

The head coach of REVEL’s Online Coaching Program, who has run a Boston Qualifying time in all the REVEL marathons, has prepared a detailed description of the 2018 Rockies Marathon and Half-Marathon courses. Read More

Coach Paul will also be giving a detailed course description at 10:45am and 1:30pm at the expo, so stop by the expo during either of those times to get even more details and to ask your questions.

For a training plan that is designed specifically for REVEL downhill courses, consider the REVEL Online Coaching Program, which is designed by 14-time REVEL Marathon Finisher and Coach Paul Carmona, who has run multiple Boston Qualifiers on every REVEL course!

Downtown Portland Bus Tickets for Mt Hood

Are you staying in Portland and looking for a more convenient way to get to Mt Hood for the event? Purchase a roundtrip bus ticket and you'll be picked up and dropped off in downtown Portland. Much cheaper and more convenient than an Uber!

Bus loading will occur from 2:30 to 3am in front of DoubleTree Hotel on Saturday, July 28, 2018. These buses will take you directly to the start lines. Spectators should not take these buses as it will leave them stranded at the start line. Buses will make the return trip from the finish line to the DoubleTree every hour. Without this ticket, you will take the free bus from the event parking to the start line race morning.
